Default weapon swap key

On the international keyboard for mac (english international, which is quite commonly used around the world I guess), the tilde key isn’t where it normally is, and there is a § key in it’s place in the normal spot below the ESC button.

So after many, many hours of playing the game, my brain is now hardwired to weapon swap with this key, as it is default. I thought no problem, I’ll just update the weapon swap key to be §, but unfortunately, GW2 will not even recognize this key — ie. I press to map to this key and nothing happens.

I’ve tried changing the keyboard input type to US International or US, or other countries for that matter, but the game simply doesn’t recognize it. Not a game breaker obviously, but an annoyance.

Hey folks,
We are looking into this (as we are the issue in which players with French-language Apple keyboards can’t enter the “@” symbol). In the meantime, if someone could upload a photo of the keyboard they’re having trouble with and post a link to it here, that would be appreciated!
